How can I measure the harmonicity of an audio spectrum?

I would like to estimate the "harmonicity" (harmonics-to-noise ratio ?) of an audio signal from its spectrum. What kind of algorithm can I use?

I have been creating an application in Java that transforms an audio signal and writes it to a midi file. At first I tried using autocorrelation to find the fundamental frequency. However, I have ...

Determining the fundamental frequency/pitch of a note

What I am trying to achieve is getting the fundamental frequency of a note played by an instrument. What I have already done is performing an FFT on a samples of audio file, and here's what I get: ...

Periodicity of peaks within a signal

I have a signal, in which i want to detect the period of the peaks, that exist within this signal: for example : After each 5mm or (5 seconds depending on the sampling rate and speed of my motor) i ...

Detection of sharp peaks in an audio signal

I have an audio signal and I'm interested to detect the very sharp peaks. If I zoom, here is something that should NOT be detected (this is voice actually): NO GOOD Here is something that should be ...

periodicity coefficient

I wonder if an efficient method exist to compute how much a signal is periodic, it should be ~1.0 when the signal is totally periodic (like a sinusoïdal signal) and ~0.0 when totally random, like a ...

Harmonic estimation from a single note

I have a recording of a single note played several times on a violin. I'm working with Matlab to estimate the amplitude of the first N harmonics. I already know which note is played but there can be ...
I'm working with speech signals and my aim is to estimate the fundamental frequency $\ F_0$ of this signal often called as "pitch". The main idea is taking small blocks of the speech signal such ...
